Build Steps

  1. In order to embed the magnetic ring into the print, it is necessary to print at a .2mm layer height with a .4mm nozzle.

  2. Pause the printer at layer number 6 or 7.

  3. Make sure the magnet is oriented with the correct side facing down (Test on the phone before hand)

  4. Peel the film of magnets and stick the magnets to the inside of the gap in the print.

  5. In order for the model to stay compact you have to remove 3 magnets from the ring and the two bottom magnets.

  6. Resume the print and it will print over the magnets, which will permanently embed them in the print.

  7. When both pieces are printed insert the SMA connector fro outside the print and run the wires inside, with the hexagonal nut fitting in place with the designated area in the print.

  8. Install the Heltec board and connect it to the SMA connector,

  9. Snap the top in place and your good to go.
